John 12
1 Nítorí náà, nígbà tí àjọ ìrékọjá ku ọjọ́ mẹ́fà, Jesu wá sí Betani, níbi tí Lasaru wà, ẹni tí ó ti kú, tí Jesu jí dìde kúrò nínú òkú.
Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 Wọ́n sì ṣe àsè alẹ́ fún un níbẹ̀. Marta sì ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n Lasaru jẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tí ó jókòó níbi tábìlì rẹ̀.
There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.
3 Nígbà náà ni Maria mú òróró ìkunra nadi, òsùwọ̀n lita kan, àìlábùlà, olówó iyebíye, ó sì ń fi kun Jesu ní ẹsẹ̀, ó sì ń fi irun orí rẹ̀ nu ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ nù. Ilé sì kún fún òórùn ìkunra náà.
Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, Judasi Iskariotu, ọmọ Simoni ẹni tí yóò fi í hàn, wí pé,
Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s [son], which should betray him,
5 “Èéṣe tí a kò ta òróró ìkunra yìí ní ọ̀ọ́dúnrún owó idẹ kí a sì fi fún àwọn tálákà?”
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?
6 Ṣùgbọ́n ó wí èyí, kì í ṣe nítorí tí ó náání àwọn tálákà; ṣùgbọ́n nítorí tí ó jẹ́ olè, òun ni ó ni àpò, a sì máa jí ohun tí a fi sínú rẹ̀ láti fi ran ara rẹ lọ́wọ́.
This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
7 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí pé, “Ẹ fi í sílẹ̀, ó ṣe é sílẹ̀ de ọjọ́ ìsìnkú mi.
Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.
8 Nígbà gbogbo ni ẹ̀yin sá à ní tálákà pẹ̀lú yín; ṣùgbọ́n èmi ni ẹ kò ní nígbà gbogbo.”
For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
9 Nítorí náà, ìjọ ènìyàn nínú àwọn Júù ni ó mọ̀ pé ó wà níbẹ̀; wọ́n sì wá, kì í ṣe nítorí Jesu nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n kí wọn lè rí Lasaru pẹ̀lú, ẹni tí ó ti jí dìde kúrò nínú òkú.
Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olórí àlùfáà gbìmọ̀ kí wọn lè pa Lasaru pẹ̀lú,
But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;
11 nítorí pé nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn Júù jáde lọ, wọ́n sì gbà Jesu gbọ́.
Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
12 Ní ọjọ́ kejì nígbà tí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn tí ó wá sí àjọ gbọ́ pé, Jesu ń bọ̀ wá sí Jerusalẹmu.
On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 Wọ́n mú imọ̀ ọ̀pẹ, wọ́n sì jáde lọ pàdé rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ń kígbe pé, “Hosana!” “Olùbùkún ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀ wá ní orúkọ Olúwa!” “Olùbùkún ni ọba Israẹli!”
Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed [is] the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.
14 Nígbà tí Jesu sì rí ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan, ó gùn ún; gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ̀wé pé,
And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
15 “Má bẹ̀rù, ọmọbìnrin Sioni; wò ó, ọba rẹ ń bọ̀ wá, o jókòó lórí ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́.”
Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass’s colt.
16 Nǹkan wọ̀nyí kò tètè yé àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí a ṣe Jesu lógo, nígbà náà ni wọ́n rántí pé, a kọ̀wé nǹkan wọ̀nyí nípa rẹ̀ sí i.
These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and [that] they had done these things unto him.
17 Nítorí náà, ìjọ ènìyàn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ nígbà tí o pé Lasaru jáde nínú ibojì rẹ̀, tí ó sì jí i dìde kúrò nínú òkú, jẹ́rìí sí i.
The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.
18 Nítorí èyí ni ìjọ ènìyàn sì ṣe lọ pàdé rẹ̀, nítorí tí wọ́n gbọ́ pé ó ti ṣe iṣẹ́ àmì yìí.
For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.
19 Nítorí náà àwọn Farisi wí fún ara wọn pé, “Ẹ kíyèsi bí ẹ kò ti lè borí ní ohunkóhun? Ẹ wo bí gbogbo ayé ti ń wọ́ tọ̀ ọ́!”
The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.
20 Àwọn Giriki kan sì wà nínú àwọn tí ó gòkè wá láti sìn nígbà àjọ,
And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:
21 Àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ó tọ Filipi wá, ẹni tí í ṣe ará Betisaida tí Galili, wọ́n sì ń béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, pé, “Alàgbà, àwa ń fẹ́ rí Jesu!”
The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
22 Filipi wá, ó sì sọ fún Anderu; Anderu àti Filipi wá, wọ́n sì sọ fún Jesu.
Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
23 Jesu sì dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Wákàtí náà dé, tí a ó ṣe Ọmọ Ènìyàn lógo.
And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
24 Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, bí kò ṣe pé alikama bá bọ́ sí ilẹ̀, tí ó bá sì kú, ó wà ní òun nìkan; ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá kú, yóò sì so ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ èso.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
25 Ẹni tí ó bá fẹ́ ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ yóò sọ ọ́ nù; ẹni tí ó bá sì kórìíra ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ láyé yìí ni yóò sì pa á mọ́ títí ó fi di ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun. (aiōnios g166)
He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
26 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá ń sìn mí, kí ó máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn, àti pe níbi tí èmi bá wà, níbẹ̀ ni ìránṣẹ́ mi yóò wà pẹ̀lú, bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá ń sìn mí, òun ni Baba yóò bu ọlá fún.
If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will [my] Father honour.
27 “Ní ìsinsin yìí ni a ń pọ́n ọkàn mi lójú; kín ni èmi ó sì wí? ‘Baba, gbà mí kúrò nínú wákàtí yìí’? Rárá, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí èyí ni mo ṣe wá sí wákàtí yìí.
Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
28 Baba, ṣe orúkọ rẹ lógo!” Nígbà náà ni ohùn kan ti ọ̀run wá, wí pé, “Èmi ti ṣe é lógo!”
Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, [saying], I have both glorified [it], and will glorify [it] again.
29 Nítorí náà ìjọ ènìyàn tí ó dúró níbẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì gbọ́ ọ, wí pé, “Àrá ń sán.” Àwọn ẹlòmíràn wí pé, “Angẹli kan ni ó ń bá a sọ̀rọ̀.”
The people therefore, that stood by, and heard [it], said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.
30 Jesu sì dáhùn wí pé, “Kì í ṣe nítorí mi ni ohùn yìí ṣe wá, bí kò ṣe nítorí yín.
Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
31 Ní ìsinsin yìí ni ìdájọ́ ayé yìí dé: nísinsin yìí ni a ó lé aládé ayé yìí jáde.
Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
32 Àti èmi, bí a bá gbé mi sókè kúrò ní ayé, èmi ó fa gbogbo ènìyàn sọ́dọ̀ ara mi!”
And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all [men] unto me.
33 Ṣùgbọ́n ó wí èyí, ó ń ṣe àpẹẹrẹ irú ikú tí òun yóò kú.
This he said, signifying what death he should die.
34 Nítorí náà àwọn ìjọ ènìyàn dá a lóhùn pé, “Àwa gbọ́ nínú òfin pé, Kristi wà títí láéláé, ìwọ ha ṣe wí pé, ‘A ó gbé Ọmọ Ènìyàn sókè’? Ta ni ó ń jẹ́ ‘Ọmọ Ènìyàn yìí’?” (aiōn g165)
The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn g165)
35 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Nígbà díẹ̀ sí i ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ wà láàrín yín, ẹ máa rìn nígbà tí ẹ̀yin ní ìmọ́lẹ̀, kí òkùnkùn má ṣe bá yín, ẹni tí ó bá sì ń rìn ní òkùnkùn kò mọ ibi òun ń lọ.
Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 Nígbà tí ẹ̀yin ní ìmọ́lẹ̀, ẹ gba ìmọ́lẹ̀ gbọ́, kí ẹ lè jẹ́ ọmọ ìmọ́lẹ̀!” Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni Jesu sọ, ó sì jáde lọ, ó fi ara pamọ́ fún wọn.
While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
37 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti ṣe ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iṣẹ́ àmì tó báyìí lójú wọn, wọn kò gbà á gbọ́.
But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:
38 Kí ọ̀rọ̀ wòlíì Isaiah lè ṣẹ, èyí tí ó sọ pé, “Olúwa, ta ni ó gba ìwàásù wa gbọ́ Àti ta ni a sì fi apá Olúwa hàn fún?”
That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
39 Nítorí èyí ni wọn kò fi lè gbàgbọ́, nítorí Isaiah sì tún sọ pé,
Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
40 “Ó ti fọ́ wọn lójú, Ó sì ti sé àyà wọn le; kí wọn má ba à fi ojú wọn rí, kí wọn má ba à fi ọkàn wọn mọ̀, kí wọn má ba à yípadà, kí èmi má ba à mú wọn láradá.”
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
41 Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni Isaiah wí, nítorí ó ti rí ògo rẹ̀, ó sì sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀.
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
42 Síbẹ̀ ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn olórí gbà á gbọ́ pẹ̀lú; ṣùgbọ́n nítorí àwọn Farisi wọn kò jẹ́wọ́ rẹ̀, kí a má ba à yọ wọ́n kúrò nínú Sinagọgu,
Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess [him], lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
43 nítorí wọ́n fẹ́ ìyìn ènìyàn ju ìyìn ti Ọlọ́run lọ.
For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
44 Jesu sì kígbe ó sì wí pé, “Ẹni tí ó bá gbà mí gbọ́, èmi kọ́ ni ó gbàgbọ́ ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó rán mi.
Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
45 Ẹni tí ó bá sì rí mi, ó rí ẹni tí ó rán mi.
And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.
46 Èmi ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ tí ó wá sí ayé, kí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá gbà mí gbọ́ má ṣe wà nínú òkùnkùn.
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
47 “Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi, tí kò sì pa wọ́n mọ́, èmi kì yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ nítorí tí èmi kò wá láti ṣe ìdájọ́ ayé, bí kò ṣe láti gba ayé là.
And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Ẹni tí ó bá kọ̀ mí, tí kò sì gba ọ̀rọ̀ mi, ó ní ẹnìkan tí ń ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀; ọ̀rọ̀ tí mo ti sọ, òun náà ni yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ ìkẹyìn.
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
49 Nítorí èmi kò dá ọ̀rọ̀ sọ fún ara mi, ṣùgbọ́n Baba tí ó rán mi, ni ó ti fún mi ní àṣẹ, ohun tí èmi ó sọ, àti èyí tí èmi ó wí.
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
